The British prospect keep coming Andre Winner, the season nine "Ultimate Fighter" runner-up, showed those great hands so many experts had been raving about. Winner (10-3-1, 1-1 UFC) floored Roli Delgado 15 seconds into their prelim fight and then put him to sleep with an overhand right to get his first UFC win at 3:22 of the first round. It was part of an undercard that featured five stoppages in six fights.
Terry Etim, 24, widely regarded as the No. 1 young prospect from the U.K., scored a submission win over Shannon Gugerty (12-4, 2-2 UFC) via guillotine choke at 1:24 of the second. Etim (14-2, 5-2 UFC) picked up his third Submission of the Night award.
In a light heavyweight bout, UFC newcomer Alexander Gustafsson (9-0, 1-0 UFC) knocked out Jared Hamman (10-2, 0-1 UFC) on a straight right in the first at 0:41. Hamman came out swinging wildly and was scoring but got nailed with a punch right down the pipe. Four more shots on the ground from the 6-foot-5 Swede, and referee Kevin Mulhall had to stop it.
Dennis Siver (15-6, 4-3 UFC) also turned in a strong finish against Brit Paul Kelly. After a close first round, Siver drilled Kelly with a spinning side kick. Kelly went down and could barely stand-up on a reset. Kelly never recovered. Siver turned it up flooring Kelly again and referee Dan Miragliotta had to stop it at 2:53 of the second round. Kelly (9-2, 3-2 UFC) laid on the mat for several minutes and left the cage with a bucket in front of his face.
Nick Osipczak (5-0, 2-0 UFC) pulled the mild upset on Matthew Riddle (3-1, 3-1 UFC) via ground and pound at 3:53 of the third round.
John Hathaway won the final prelim bout of the night via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-26) over Paul Taylor. Hathway controlled the fight on the ground nullifying Taylor's dangerous standup.
